Been there, done that
Thanks! I don't celebrate it but thanks for the sentiment
That's Malaysia and Transbaikal. Malaysia is that big because the Brits and Japanese partitioned Dutch Indonesia either after the First Great War or during the interwar years (idk which, the FR HOI4 mod devs would know more about this). Transbaikal is an evolution of the original Russian Republic that kinda got "exiled" there following the rise of the USSR
I literally just created Silesia on the map lol, I haven't thought of the politics yet besides it being a parliamentary republic. And it's independent because the Soviets seized it and made it a puppet state
